[00:00.020]I'mma ho, whole word on hold
[00:02.880]The crowd is like "ho!", operator's like "hold"
[00:05.950]Man, now ain't that cold?
[00:08.340]I'm just trying to talk to my homie, that's something to hold
[00:11.030]Homegirl ain't trying to be a hole, even though she on a pole
[00:14.340]Can she get a second chance? NO!
[00:16.750]Whoa! Like the opposite of gold
[00:19.440]That's how it's supposed to be: a butterfly
[00:21.940]For the sake of rhyming let's just say "butterflyee"
[00:24.680]The truth stings like Muhammad Ali
[00:28.020]I tell 'em tell 'em don't homocide me
[00:30.350]I just a little old hope with his back against the ropes
[00:33.330]Fighting for his fans and, fighting for his folks
[00:35.940]But the boo's from the crowd they become so loud
[00:38.710]If I could block em out then, I could knock em out then
[00:41.780]Dance around the ring, but until then I'll say
[00:44.150]I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[00:46.260]It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[00:49.040]Until I get there
[00:51.790]Until I get there
[00:55.010]And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[00:57.410]But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[01:00.270]When I get there
[01:02.890]When I get there
[01:06.290]"Doctor doctor please! The fame ain't painless enough"
[01:09.180]That's cause you ain't famous enough
[01:11.880]You got a little game, but your name ain't ringing enough
[01:15.770]He said "take 2 of these and put change in my cup"
[01:18.020]I said I wasn't poor, he gave me some more
[01:20.320]Grabbed me a publicist and pointed me to the door
[01:23.170]"Out!" Ouch.. I'm telling you this all from a therapist's couch
[01:28.670]"Tell me about your mother? What she's all about?"
[01:31.370]Prescribed me an interview and then told me to bounce
[01:34.110]Damn..geez. The world is so cold, I'm glad I bought these skis
[01:39.770]Went right off of the bunny sloped and right into the trees
[01:42.850]Went unconscious, they rushed me to a concert
[01:45.360]Instead of green jello, they made me chicken soup
[01:47.780]They fed me magazine covers and video shoots
[01:50.670]I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[01:52.710]It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[01:55.460]Until I get there
[01:58.220]Until I get there
[02:01.570]And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[02:03.720]But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[02:06.550]When I get there
[02:09.290]When I get there
[02:12.720]And when I finally make it, I'mma stunt so hard
[02:15.490]Evil as Knievel, I'mma jump so far
[02:18.240]Way up in the atmosphere, I ain't coming back
[02:20.880]Be a jerk to these jerks, yeah that'll make em hurt
[02:23.730]Huh? Instead of young boy in the mirror
[02:26.550]A young version of me, so I started to tear up
[02:29.170]He said "you need to cheer up, your mind need to clear up
[02:31.960]You're already here, just be yourself in mirror"
[02:33.350]Then he disappeared and I felt something familiar
[02:37.070]Something I was taught, something I had lost
[02:39.770]If you are afraid, the fear that you gon' change some
[02:42.830]All you gotta do is just remember where you came from
[02:45.890]I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[02:47.570]It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[02:50.200]Until I get there
[02:53.200]Until I get there
[02:56.360]And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[02:58.670]But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[03:01.430]When I get there
[03:04.140]When I get there
